found a really good deal on an 03 busa with 13000miles in pretty good shape.anything to worry about on that model year?just got back from a test drive and eveything seems good.got it for the rest of the weekend.buying it for the wife,before anyone says its too much bike her last bike was an 02 gixxer1000 and she drives my zx14.getting it for $3800.up here in canada 03s are still going for $7000,so it seems like a good deal to me, and its from a dealer.
 
Wow, it seems to good to be true, specialy from a dealer. Make sure u check it out real good. Good luck!!!
 
'03 was a good year,bought mine new and still have it.:thumbsup:

thanks guys and gals.couple of minor things wrong with it.fork seal,but what suzuki doesnt have forks seal problem.the cush drive in the back wheel is either wore out or somebody forgot to put one of the rubbers back in,there'is about 3/4 inch play in it.minor scratches.but for the price i cant go wrong.oh the dealer is gonna supply the parts,i just have to change them.

Dang I wish I can find a Busa for that price. If anyone knows where I can get a Busa for that price please let me know, thank you, will greatly appreciate it.
 
Great buy, it looks like you guys are enjoying it already. But it comes with a good and a bad for you. The bad the busa will always be in front of the that zx 14, the good will be your view. Be safe!
 
the only way the busa will be in front is if i ride it and let the wife ride the 14,sorry just had to.i know this is a busa forum but there no way a STOCK gen1 is gonna beat a 14 especially with the flies out and -1 in the front. now a gen11 that could a differant story.
